Cops Nab Suspects Who Robbed Carter's Country Guns & Ammo in Houston - NBC News

But why didn't they follow any of the gun laws? Isn't it against the law to illegally acquire weapons? Why didn't they get these registered? What about their background checks?? So many questions!

Since Holder is no longer providing them weapons, they have to get them somehow.

I knew they'd get caught. That many guns stolen couldn't possibly remain a secret on the streets. Too many people were involved.

On another note...lousy ass security. The owner needs to do better.

I have to give the thieves credit that was one smooth robbery done in 2 mins. But their part B of them and guns staying in Houston was not so good.

Knowledge of F&F allowed Hillary to say, '90% of the guns come from the US'.


Then again who needs to rob a store when cops keep losing their guns...

My sources say they tracked one down by his giant butt crack on the video footage. (First guy in the foreground...)

That crew was in the wrong business. Being that smooth (once they figured out how to make the chain work...) they should be hitting jewelry stores - they couldda heisted millions. Instead what did they get? A few guns and years in prison.

The gun store owner is an idiot!

Many things that store owner could have done and they would not have got anything in a smash & grab, but a few cleaning kits, some holsters and some scope rings.

Kinda like the motorcycle shop, moves bikes out side along the sidewalks to display the merchandise. They bring them back inside and lock them up when the store closes.

A simple cable lock system, running through the trigger guards, would have prevented any of the long rifles from walking away. A roll down garage door type concealing and securing, could have also been incorporated over the open display of long guns. All the handguns are taken from the glass displays and get put into a gun safe at night, along with the limited ammo on display.

Pants on the ground probably made it pretty easy to figure out what part of town to start looking.
